Often considered the most beloved, enduring and popular film of all time ‘Gone With The Wind’ will be screened at 6 pm on October 27, at the American Center, Galle Road, Colombo-3.
Based on Margaret Mitchell’s novel, Sidney Howard wrote the script for the film produced by David O. Selznick.
The indomitable heroine, Scarlett O’Hara, struggles to find love during the chaotic Civil War years and afterwards, and ultimately must seek refuge for herself and her family back at the beloved plantation Tara.
There, she takes charge, defends it against Union soldiers, carpetbaggers, and starvation itself. She finally marries her worldly admirer Rhett Butler, but her apathy toward him in their marriage dooms their battling relationship, and she again returns to Tara to find consolation - indomitable. |
